27 March 2012

I took this picture back in December of 1983, when I was an exchange student in Paris. I visited Berlin over the Christmas holidays and crossed over to East Berlin for one day. This was in front of some memorial - I don't remember which, probably for fallen comrades who gave their lives to protect the proletariat from price competition or something. When I showed people this photo later on, no-one else seemed to see the irony in it.
